No, an edifice must be built for the abomination of desolation to occur in. Scripture says the beast/antichrist will halt the sacrifices in the temple. Paul wrote in 2 Thess.2 that the beast will sit in the temple & proclaim himself to be God. That hasn't yet happened, of course, since...

You may view an eclipse of you wish by any manner you choose. Apparently you haven't read a Bible closely, or you're using the King George version. Apparently you not only don't know history, but you don't know current events too well, either. When was the temple rebuilt after 70 AD? And...

Mens' hearts will fail from fear FOR THE THINGS THEY SEE COMING ON THE EARTH. You ignored that part of the Scripture, which prets are apt to do with any verses that clash with their false doctrine.(Mens' hearts will fail because of the CAUSE of those phenomena.) And you don't know history too...

How silly. There's PLENTYA Scriptural support. If the sun REALLY became that dim, not just obscured, we'd freeze to death some 8 minutes after it occurred. And do stars REALLY fall? "Falling star" has been a term for a meteor since time immemorial. you just don't like those facts since they...

Sportzz Fanzz, please take Iconoclast's stuff with a grain of salt. He believes the goofy & false preterist doctrine.

Ancient peoples used sackcloth, and some still do today, to view solar eclipses. The sky will become so smoky/dusty that people will be able to view the sun with the unshielded eye, much as we can now, thru fog. The falling stars will be meteors. And I explained about the heavens earlier.

The sky will be swiftly be covered with clouds coming from opposite directions, as occasionally happens in a severe thundersiorm or dust storm.

No, it represents meteors.

And at the time it was written, people believed meteors were falling stars. Jesus wasn't teaching astronomy.

They will be meteors. "Falling stars" has long been a term for meteors.

Sir, the beast will be in power when the trib occurs. Besides that, JESUS said He'd return IMMEDIATELY AFTER the trib, so if it's already occurred, He's 'WAY-overdue!

Dusty area.

Preterism was, & remains, false.

I read about the discovery of the ruins of Nineveh. Don't know what your argument is. The remains of Nineveh were buried beneath the shifting sands & dirt of the area. (BTW, several intact "basements" were found, full of clay tablets of Assyrian writings.) Again, what's your argument about...

Aint happened yet.

Not at all. Prets say the eschatological events have already occurred, but haven't proved a word of their assertions. Instead, they've tossed red herrings & presented bunny trails to avoid the truth.

Yes, but it was symbolic, with Joe knowing the symbols' meanings, while Jesus' words were NOT; they were literal.

Nupe! Joe's was from a dream; Jesus'words were from His SURE KNOWLEDGE.

Aint happened yet. There were still Idumeans(Herod, etc. to name a few) after Jesus was here. Seems Isaiah wrote about Jesus' return interspersed among the judgments against Babylon when the Medes & Persians conquered it. I refer you to the book "Worlds In Collision" by Immanuel Velikovsky...

Never said they were literal in Joe's dream, but I'd say the sun & moon represent Joe's dad & mom, & in V 10, Jake seemsta think so too. The stars represented his bros. It came to pass when Joe became Pharaoh's Grand Vizier during the bumper crops, followed by the famine in Egypt & Jake & family...
